Mapping of Slice Built-In Types to MATLAB Types

The Slice built-in types are mapped to MATLAB types as shown in this table:

String Mapping in MATLAB

String values returned as the result of a Slice operation, including return values, out parameters, and data members, are converted from UTF-8 (Ice's on-the-wire encoding) to MATLAB's native UTF-16 encoding.

The MATLAB mapping accepts empty arrays in addition to character vectors as string input values for remote Slice operations; each occurrence of an empty array is marshaled as an empty string. Ice assumes that all character vectors contain valid UTF-16 encoded strings and converts them to UTF-8 prior to marshaling.
